Empieza bien, con un par de agujeros en la trama pero bien. De la mitad al final se pierde la poca lÃ³gica que le quedaba, hay una competencia de baile dolorosa de ver y al final todo se resuelve como por arte de magia. FAIL

There is no character development, there are too much cliches, and even Fernando Lujan, who you would expect to carry with the film, looks misguided to say the least.
